29、术英语教程 2 电子教案电子教案 2 Learning to play a musical instrument from another culture is an excellent way to begin to learn about that culture.It is easier,however,for a student to learn an instrument from another culture if he or she already plays a similar instrument.For example,American students who play

30、 the flute have a much easier time learning the Chinese dizi than those who do not.American students who already play string instruments such as the violin,viola,or cello can learn to play the Chinese erhu much more quickly than those who have no experience.PreparationText AText BDevelopmentUnit 1 B

31、ridging Cultural Gap21世纪大学艺术英语教程世纪大学艺术英语教程 2 电子教案电子教案 3 In China,the most popular western musical instruments are the piano and the violin.Not as many Chinese students choose to play woodwind instruments such as the flute,oboe,clarinet,or bassoon,or brass instruments such as the trumpet,French horn,

32、trombone,or tuba.As a result,Chinese universities that want to develop western-style orchestras have more difficulty finding students who play these instruments,and it is challenging for Chinese students learning woodwind and brass instruments to find good role models from whom to learn the best pla

34、ese universities.American music students who will eventually become teachers need more experience in multiculturalism and diversity to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse population.Chinese music students who want to learn to play western-style music need to be exposed to role models who have

35、been schooled in those traditions.An exchange of music students and faculty members between American and Chinese universities would clearly be of great benefit to both groups.PreparationText AText BDevelopmentUnit 1 Bridging Cultural Gap21世纪大学艺术英语教程世纪大学艺术英语教程 2 电子教案电子教案 5 One of the challenges to an

36、 exchange of musicians between American and Chinese universities is that,until recently,music students in China were expected to focus on learning musical skills and not necessarily on learning English.That,however,has changed because Chinese students are now required to take English.Conversely,Amer

37、ican music students who have to learn any foreign language at all might be required to learn French or German,but not Chinese.This is still the case,so translators have to be provided when Chinese music teachers come to America to teach classes.PreparationText AText BDevelopmentUnit 1 Bridging Cultu

38、ral Gap21世纪大学艺术英语教程世纪大学艺术英语教程 2 电子教案电子教案 6 While the language issues create something of a barrier,the universal nature of the music itself is able in some cases to overcome language differences.Some students find that they can imitate the music of the teacher even if neither can understand a word t
